Hope they aren't repeats.
cool. from the couple pics he sent me it looked kinda sativa, but it looks more indica dominant now that I can see more of the plant.. turn out to be a pretty good smoke, eh? how tall were they when you chopped them?Quote:

and oh yeah, pic #5 is at 5:12am...needed water bad...gonna move to a higher amount of water per each of them now and do it less frequently following the advice of bob :) :stoned:
just don't let them dry out... bb's can be rather unforgiving from underwatering... they bounce back, but it takes about ten days to recover from a bad drought...
yeah, definitely don't let them dry out badly. they felt rather soft when I crashed last night but I didn't think they would need any at least until morning..should've given them some though. I've got a strong conscience for watering...probably too strong, hint the curled up leaves..I'm learning though...thanks to people like all of you, I learn vital things. If it weren't for you, I would be clueless.Quote:

mine deff space out, leaving big blueberry buches, and small cola's. and your spacing is irrelevent. it will perform the same. actually, they may do better super stretched as the individual nodes would get more light.
here's a pic of what you're asking about...
thanks scarlet..I'm hoping for a decent yield..something to get me by for a while. I regret not topping at least one more of them..now seeing how much better it probably will be.Quote:

hmmm, well mark, that's a toughie... i use a 400w mh and a 1000w in flower. under the 1000w, they start at two feet and end up at around 8 inches, no cool tube
the plants under the 400 get as close as two inches, no cool tube, but i have a large room, and the heat dissapates quickly. as far as topping and lst, i do both, but the first time i run a strain, i let it grow naturally... i want to show you this excerpt from greg green's cannabis grow bible concerning bb...
" Depending on the strain and the growing environment, the 'topped' plant may produce two small top colas instead of two big ones. Also, each strain has a threshold for bud production that cannot be improved upon because it is a genetically predetermined factor. On the other hand, some plants when fully grown without topping do not reach their threshold. The strain Blueberry is a good example of this. If you grow Blueberry without topping you won't achieve maximum bud production from that plant, but if you top the Blueberry, you will. Other strains aren't so flexible and the two top colas will simply share the same volume of bud that a single cola would have produced on the same strain."
ahh...thanks a lot scarlet..:thumbsup: I will certainly be doing a few more bb grows before I switch strains I think...it's a wonderful smoke..damn good for pain. I may throw in a couple of other strains sometime but I wanna grow several of these plants just because of my heightened interest in it..Quote:
